At the end of the current fiscal year, <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Tammany</strong> <strong>Parish</strong> is able to report positive balances in all three categories of net assets, both for the <strong>Parish</strong> as a whole, as well as for its separate governmental and business-type activities. The same held true for the prior fiscal year. Governmental activities. Governmental activities increased the <strong>Parish</strong>’s net assets by $5,154,475. Key elements of this increase are as follows: <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Tammany</strong> <strong>Parish</strong>’s Changes in Net Assets Governmental Activities Business-type Activities Total 2010 2009 2010 2009 2010 2009 Revenues: Program revenues: Charges for services $13,767,491 $13,250,892 $9,258,153 $2,979,866 $23,025,644 $16,230,758 Operating grants and contributions 18,772,107 10,883,718 - 76 18,772,107 10,883,794 Capital grants and contributions 12,877,559 15,538,504 - 625,668 12,877,559 16,164,172 General Revenues: Property taxes 27,097,584 24,872,888 - - 27,097,584 24,872,888 Sales and use tax 51,699,305 52,024,479 - - 51,699,305 52,024,479 Other taxes 2,034,195 2,346,381 - - 2,034,195 2,346,381 <strong>St</strong>ate revenue sharing 292,125 272,060 - - 292,125 272,060 Federal payments in lieu of Ad valorem 70,434 101,717 - - 70,434 101,717 Sale of revocated property 33,000 30,000 - - 33,000 30,000 Other 2,809,197 4,487,052 50,337 19,876 2,859,534 4,506,928 Total revenues 129,452,997 123,807,691 9,308,490 3,625,486 138,761,487 127,433,177 Expenses: General government 18,145,039 17,652,244 - - 18,145,039 17,652,244 Public safety 28,719,942 20,415,372 - - 28,719,942 20,415,372 Highways and streets 39,582,188 52,059,250 - - 39,582,188 52,059,250 Sanitation 1,754,022 4,196,016 - - 1,754,022 4,196,016 Health and welfare 14,885,917 9,564,563 - - 14,885,917 9,564,563 Culture and recreation 15,911,265 10,142,970 - - 15,911,265 10,142,970 Economic development 405,937 180,307 - - 405,937 180,307 Interest on long-term debt 5,031,640 5,213,319 - - 5,031,640 5,213,319 Property management - - 727,791 733,655 727,791 733,655 Utility operations - - 9,090,165 1,705,427 9,090,165 1,705,427 Total expenses 124,435,950 119,424,041 9,817,956 2,439,082 134,253,906 121,863,123 Increase (decrease) in net assets before transfers 5,017,047 4,383,650 (509,466) 1,186,404 4,507,581 5,570,054 Transfers 137,428 (6,885,928) (137,428) 6,885,928 - - Increase (decrease) in net assets 5,154,475 (2,502,278) (646,894) 8,072,332 4,507,581 5,570,054 Net assets – Beginning of the Year 412,430,327 414,932,605 14,990,795 6,918,463 427,421,122 421,851,068 Net assets – End of the Year $417,584,802 $412,430,327 $14,343,901 $14,990,795 $431,928,703 $427,421,122 The most notable component of the variance between the 2009 and 2010 fiscal years is the transfer of assets from governmental activities to business-type activities in 2009. The increase in net assets before transfers is 14.4% more in 2010 than was reported in 2009. Revenues increased by 4.6%, while expenses increased by 4.2%. The increase in expenses is mainly due to a change in the way the <strong>Parish</strong> accounts for taxes levied by the <strong>Parish</strong> and passed on to other entities. In 2008, the <strong>Parish</strong> began recognizing all taxes it 19
levies as revenue in the period for which it was earned. In 2009, the <strong>Parish</strong> recorded expenses for the <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Tammany</strong> <strong>Parish</strong> Library, STARC/Council on Aging and the <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Tammany</strong> <strong>Parish</strong> Coroner as the amount actually remitted to the agencies for the revenue recognized in 2008. In 2010, <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Tammany</strong> <strong>Parish</strong> has decided that it would better state the <strong>Parish</strong>’s financial position as a whole to record both the accrued revenue and the expenses related to the accrued revenue in the same fiscal year. Since this change was implemented in 2010, expenses for these agencies show an increase from 2009. Expenses increased for items funded by federal and state grants. These increases were slightly offset by a decrease in expenses for Highways and <strong>St</strong>reets. This decrease is due to many <strong>St</strong>ate Road projects, funded by the <strong>Parish</strong>, being completed prior to 2010. The net effect of the following four components account for the increase in revenue: • Operating grants increased by 72%, or $7,888,389. • Capital grants and contributions decreased by 17%, or $2,660,945 mainly due to a decrease in donated assets. • Property tax increased by 9%, or $2,224,696. • Investment earnings decreased 34%, or $1,401,386. This includes not only interest earnings, but also the change in fair market value of investments held at year end. Business-type activities. Business-type activities decreased <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Tammany</strong> <strong>Parish</strong>’s net assets by $646,894. Business-type activities changed tremendously from the prior year due to the purchase of a large utility company in March of 2010. This acquisition added approximately 8,200 water and 6,500 sewer customers to the previous less than 3,000 water and sewer customers of the <strong>Parish</strong>. The variance between 2009 and 2010 resulted from primarily two things. First, transfers in 2009 from governmental activities to business-type activities for the purchase of a small utility company funded by general obligation bonds. Second, utility revenue bonds were issued in 2010 to fund the purchase of the large utility company which resulted in increased interest expense. Transfers. The transfers from business-type activities to governmental activities were the net effect of three items. First, debt payments were transferred from the Utility Operations fund to the Debt Service fund for payments due on the bonds issued for the purchase of the small utility company in 2009. Second, debt payments were transferred from the Environmental Services fund to Utility Operations for payments due on Utility Revenue bonds issued to improve the current sewer and water system. Third, capital assets that have been funded through grants, but are now used by Utility Operations or the <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Tammany</strong> <strong>Parish</strong> <strong>St</strong>ate Complex were transferred to the appropriate enterprise fund. This should more accurately show the operational costs of the enterprise funds since the depreciation expense will be recorded within the fund that the asset operates. 20
